Pathologists at the Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust have been the latest in Greater Manchester to put this into practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Piles of glass slides on a desk is not the view that pathologists want to see when they start their day, says Dr Luisa Motta, consultant histopathologist at the trust, and joint clinical lead for the digital pathology programme in Greater Manchester. \u201cI would often receive several trays of slides that would not always be in the right order. It generates unnecessary stress and takes the joy out of work.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In response to this and to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rcpath.org\/discover-pathology\/public-affairs\/the-pathology-workforce.html\">rising national demand<\/a>&nbsp;faced in pathology, Dr Motta and early adopters at the trust, are now benefiting from a different approach, that is reducing stresses, delays, and labour-intensive tasks associated with physical handling and transportation of glass slides. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Embracing new ways of working<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr Lynne Jamieson, a dermapathologist for almost 20 years, has radically changed her practice in a matter of months, learning and adopting new ways of working with minimal disruption, and significant positive impact. \u201cI felt that if I want to make my working life more flexible, I need to get on board with digital,\u201d Dr Jamieson says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI became comfortable with digital pathology within just two months of using the Sectra platform,\u201d she says. \u201cIt has been transformational \u2013 not only from the personal wellbeing and work-life balance perspective, but also from caseload management. And that\u2019s coming from someone who was initially sceptical about going digital. Today, I\u2019m still finding more, and more things that I like about it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr Jamieson believes this has significantly helped with workflow efficiency. \u201cMy list of cases would have effectively been a desk full of glass slides, not very long ago. Now, new cases appear on my list digitally, in a more manageable way,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere has been a huge transformation in how I manage my work. It\u2019s about learning what the system can do for me. I\u2019m better able to keep track of cases. The ability for myself and colleagues to add comments to studies means I know where each case is up to. And I\u2019m more relaxed when reporting \u2013 I can come back to a complex case when I\u2019m best prepared, without having to necessarily travel to a particular location. I have a lot of positive things to say.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More efficient workflow has also been the highlight for Dr Motta: \u201cI recently had 90 active cases on a particular day and managed to go through all of them smoothly \u2013 something that normally couldn\u2019t be achieved with a microscope and physical glass slides.\u201d It\u2019s not just about improving my desk workflow, but staff morale too, Dr Motta says: \u201cHaving to look through numerous piles of slides is not the best use of anybody\u2019s time. If technology can provide us with better access and better records, that also means we can have a better job satisfaction.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A new precedent in work-life balance<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Access to images from home, without the need for slides packaged and transported, is already having impact. Dr Jamieson praises how this transformation has positively influenced her routine: \u201cFor the first time in my career, I\u2019ve been able to work two days a week from home. I can choose to start early on those days, or work later, without the stress of driving into the office.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This helps make pathology a more attractive environment to work in, she adds: \u201cResidents and new consultants don\u2019t want to work like I did when I was their age. They want a better work-life balance. This represents a huge shift in a very short time. The more flexibility you can offer, the more desirable your working environment becomes.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Fostering collaboration and communication: Digital MDTs and more<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>New digital ways of working mean pathologists can collaborate with multidisciplinary teams more productively. \u201cBefore, I would use my microscopes with a camera attached to project one image at a time in online meetings, which would often require looking at paper reports \u2013 a process too convoluted,\u201d says Dr Motta. Now, she is able to share multiple visual images on the screen at the same time, enabling multidisciplinary colleagues to understand the case efficiently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Time is everything when it comes to diagnosing conditions like cancer, and this is where digital pathology brings a huge benefit: \u201cDemonstrating findings on several slides including immunohistochemical stains, at the click of a button, helps come to a conclusion quickly, which is a very relevant feature in cancer diagnosis,\u201d says Dr Motta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Digitising slides has also streamlined preparation for multidisciplinary meetings, she explains: \u201cIf a slide cannot be retrieved on time, then the review of the case cannot happen. But with digital images, it takes minutes to organise these meetings. And if I was sick or on leave, my colleagues would still have access to slides. The burden for laboratory and office staff is also significantly reduced, as they don\u2019t have to manually retrieve cases in preparation for the meeting, which would often take a whole afternoon.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr Jamieson agrees: \u201cSharing images at MDT is important,\u201d she says. \u201cBeing able to do that in an efficient way is beneficial to patient care. If I can illustrate to a clinician why I have said something, they can then better explain a diagnosis to a patient. This is so much smoother now. I can easily share images instantly, zoom in and out, and engage with people rather than the microscope.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Enhanced cross-team collaboration has been taken to the next level thanks to the live chat function, which enables Dr Motta and Dr Jamieson to annotate images to specific clinicians when discussing cases, and receive a second opinion from a specialist colleague almost immediately. \u201cI can click a link in the message to the case I\u2019m working on and add a note to my colleagues to ask about their thoughts. I\u2019m also able to send chat messages to the scanning room, which are quickly picked up by biomedical scientists,\u201d says Dr Jamieson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Setting the ground for the next generation of pathologists&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Traditionally, pathologists and resident doctors would examine slides with microscopes together in the same room. Now, Dr Motta can teach online, demonstrating cases and histological findings on the screen, an approach that has been positively received by residents. \u201cIt is a very smooth process, which doesn\u2019t require any additional actions from the lab, such as retrieving and refiling cases. It definitely opens up new ideas and appetite to work differently.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Residents are enthusiastic about the opportunities that digital pathology can provide. \u201cThey want to learn how to use it because it\u2019s going to be their future career,\u201d says Dr Jamieson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sharing best practice in other environments has also become more efficient: \u201cTaking pictures for presentations, publications, and education, has become so easy,\u201d says Dr Jamieson. \u201cThere is no need to retrieve slides from file, make sure it is in focus, that there is no dirt on the slide, freezing screens, and editing the picture. Now we just search for the case and save the relevant image.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Digital transformation may also be attractive to pathologists approaching retirement, and provide the opportunity to continue to be part of the workforce at a time that suits them: \u201cAs this gives flexibility, colleagues can still contribute, for longer. I think my retiring colleagues will be enthusiastic to embrace it,\u201d says Dr Jamieson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>All about people<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As wider adoption begins to take place and cross-site collaboration becomes possible, a conversation on entirely new ways people can work is opening. Dr Jamieson is eager to share learnings: \u201cOnce more people are on board with digital pathology, it would be beneficial to create surgeries where colleagues can share what they&#8217;ve learned,\u201d says Dr Jamieson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the end, it\u2019s all about people \u2013 building the next generation of pathologists who are both successful in their roles and satisfied in their careers, says Dr Motta. \u201cIf we can use technology to help us work more efficiently and improve job satisfaction, I think we should embrace it and maximise its impact.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n<p>Improvements to clinical practice and work-life balance are being achieved at pace by early adopters of digital pathology at the Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust.
